ANTIFOAM LC 30 W
Description
ANTIFOAM LC 30 W is based on organic modified siloxane compounds. ANTIFOAM LC 30 W delivers an immediate and long-lasting defoaming and deaerating effect. It is suitable for use of mineral oil-based-, synthetic emulsions and solutions. ANTIFOAM LC 30 W can also be used to facilitate or simplify the removal of metal reaction products from working fluids.
Application
ANTIFOAM LC 30 W is added to conventional watermiscible cutting fluids in concentrations from 0.001 to 0.01 %. It is typically added to cleaning solutions and synthetic cutting fluid emulsions and finishing compounds in concentrations of 0.002 %. By using special solubilizers a rapid distribution of the active ingredient is obtained.
ANTIFOAM LC 30 W does not form separating films on metallic surfaces and does not inhibit any subsequent procedural steps such as cleaning, painting or electroplating.
ANTIFOAM LC 30 W is applied slowly to paper filters by means of the filtration procedure, but it is eliminated by means of micro filtration modules or separators and must then be re-added. A portion of the agent is removed along with the skimmed oil.
Benefits
- very effective defoamer
- spontaneous and lasting effect
- compatible with all aqueous solutions and emulsions
- no negative effect on cleaning, painting electroplating etc.
Storage conditions
If sealed in the original container ANTIFOAM LC 30 W can be stored up to 1 year at temperatures between 5 to + 40 °C. Please homogenize before use.
